Shakespeare's sonnets were fully translated into Armenian 5 times. However, all these translations were in violation of the meter of the original - iambic pentameter. This is usually explained by the longer, compared to English, length of Armenian words. 

This sixth complete translation of the sonnets is made in compliance with the poetic meter of the original, which proves that this does not depend on the length of the Armenian words. In addition, also for the first time, a word-for-word translation is published.

The book is completely ready for printing. Even a pilot print was printed and a presentation was organized. 

The PDF can be found on the website tarumian.am

At the presentation "Three books and one site".
